G7 Summit held in Ise-Shima
G7 Summit was held on May 26th and 27th in Ise-Shima area in Mie pref.(http://www.mofa.go.jp/index.html)
The top politicians of the seven countries got together at 10:45 at the entrance to the Ise Shrine, where Amaterasu, the goddess of the sun who is believed to be the highest deity and an ancestor to the Japanese emperors in the Japanese mythology is enshrined. And the top dogs of the states together planted trees in token of the paramount meeting of powers.
The venue of the meeting Ise-Shima has been a very popular tourists’ destination over hundreds of years as a holy area related to the imperial house. Some say Ise-Shima is the spiritual home to the Japanese, and actually a lot of Japanese visit the area for sightseeing or for their religious faith. And main venue of the Summit is in Kashimajima Island that is a small island area known as one mecca of pearl industry of Japan. Some of my relatives live on that island running pearl processing business. All those areas are quite beautiful and worth visiting. The Summit was held for the two days and the politicians discussed the world economy and how they can improve inbalance and disparities and other issues among zones and countries in the world. We hope a lot of people even from outside of Japan come to Ise-Shima to enjoy the beautiful scenery, the historical atmosphere and human industry there.
